Product Description
A humpback whale swimming in blue water, engraved on ancient walrus tusk
This humpback whale scrimshaw on walrus tusk by A. Good shows a humpback gliding through deep blue water, its long pectoral fins spread wide. The scene is engraved on a 5-inch section of ancient walrus tusk, with the rough natural ends left in place.
The blue tones wash across the tusk like open ocean, giving the whale depth and movement. The tusk rests on a wooden stand, turning the piece into a calm, contemplative display for a desk, mantel, or study.
